Dear Collectors,

It will be nice if you can post pictures of your display cabinets here. What size, height, depth, width will be most ideal for 1/43 scale models.

Cheers
Phil

Dear phil, polycarbonate however has the disadvantage to "yellow" over the years, not to mention the scratches it will have through time which is inevitable....

Here in Holland we also have a "crystal" glas variaton which is not as "green" as normal glas ans this is just as clear as PC bnut much more durable

Nevertheless you have an absolutely beautiful display for you models!

It's a very clean and classy solution...modern and very stylish

Thanks Hans and Mark,

But instead of using glass, I used the polycarbonate which is also very clear and light weight.

Very beautiful solution Phil!
I suppose they glued the vertical wodden strip so it is to be udes as an handle to slide
the glass out........What an idea!

Great collection by the way!

Really love your latest piece: the 375MM (but the rest also: the '64 250 GTO e.g)

Thats a fantastic display Phil!

To many collectors have priority on models, but the way they are displayed makes a good collection stand out!

It took me about half a year to plan his as seen from my thread start date. I was working with the designer on hot to keep it air tight and came out with this solution.

Very nice display!!! (and a fantastic collection, too!)


I have finally begun preparations for my display cabinet to be built - hopefully by the end of the year it will be finished... I have been waiting too long for this, but despite the cost, seeing displays like these remind me that it will be worthwhile.

Beautiful cabinet but very little space in relation to the prize.

There was a "Paternoster" cabinet back in 2008, which could be purchased directly from AUDI. Price was 2350 Euro.
Now perhaps on ebay?

Spotted this shop on Cecil Court in London (any Harry Potter fans here?). Wonder how much this display costs...
